Don't eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn't recognise as food. - Michael Pollan
Sometime in the 1950s, Emiko Davies' nonno-in-law began the tradition of ringing in the new year with tortellini al sugo. He served it along with spumante and a round of tombola, and sparked a trend; for over 20 year
s, you could find tortellini at midnight on New Year's Eve in the bars around Fucecchio.
This is just one of the heirloom dishes in this collection, for which Emiko Davies has gathered some of her favorite family recipes. They trace generations that span the length of Italy, from the Mediterranean port city of Taranto in the southern heel of Puglia to elegant Turin, the city of aperitif and Italian cafe culture in the far north and, finally, back to Tuscany, which Emiko calls home.
Tortellini at Midnight is a book rich with nostalgia, with fresh, comforting food and stunning photography. It is a book that is good for the soul....Show more

'Book of the decade, if you ask me... Every cook should have it' Elisabeth Luard'What makes this book really special, just like The Flavour Thesaurus, aside from Niki's impressive expertise, is her humour and personality. It's a joy to read' OlivemagazineA ground-breaking book, designed to help creative
cooks develop their own recipes, from the bestselling author of The Flavour Thesaurus. One dish leads to another...Lateral Cookingis, in a sense, the 'method' companion to its bestselling predecessor, The Flavour Thesaurus- and is just as useful, ingeniously organised and enjoyable to read.The book is divided into 12 chapters, each covering a basic culinary category, such as 'Bread', 'Sauces' or 'Custard'. The recipes in each chapter are then arranged on a continuum, the transition from one recipe to another generally amounting to a tweak or two in the method or ingredients. Which is to say, one dish leads to another: once you've got the hang of flatbreads, for instance, then its neighbouring dishes on the continuum (crackers, soda bread, scones) will involve the easiest and most intuitive adjustment. The result is greater creativity in the kitchen: Lateral Cookingencourages improvisation, resourcefulness, and, ultimately, the knowledge and confidence to cook by heart.Lateral Cookingis essentially a practical book, but like The Flavour Thesaurusit's also a highly enjoyable read. The 'Flavours & Variations' sections, for example, draw widely on culinary science, history, ideas from professional kitchens, observations by renowned food writers and personal recollection. Entertaining, opinionated and inspirational, Lateral Cookingwill have you torn between donning your apron and settling back in a comfortable chair....Show more
